A really lovely gem and a special locality piece. Cut from an old collection crystal from the Peter Indergand collection, this gem has the distinction of being a true Alpine Smoky Quartz. Whether it is simply knowing this or not, the gem seems to be one of the most pleasant examples of this out of favor gem that we have seen - the tone is light and seems almost crisper than we usually see. Entirely clean and with a fine cut. If you are going to have an example of this material, you could do worse than a fine Swiss stone from a great collection.
